lure is as mysterious as unopen- ed mail but come to think of it, so is the past. In the face or wh2t has been we need not fear lhe future. rwe can enter into it believing thrut our present epoch is a period of ·change to a new direction of civilizetion, bring- ing new blessings both material and spiritual to human kind.
None of us should enter with ~udacilty upon the task of pre- dicting what me·asure of success lies ahead. What success we may h!liV•e, what victories we may win, ' h• future aLone can tell.
And so ,Juniors, to you I say "Th~ future holds your success.'' ..A.nd although at times you may re dis!comaged by oUJtward con- ditions or inward fears, success is yours if you exevt suffi·cient effort to .acquire it. You all have
fine intelle·cts, and the many rlitiicult.ies in the next four ;ve.ars will dissolve before deter- mined, diligent .application just as the snow melts before the S\l D. Uphold you own honour ~nd also that of C. H. S. And he assured the best wishes of •the graduating class are with you.
